League Banter - The Matchday thread

Trains win 2 - 0 away, 8 league wins in a row, 5 points clear with 7 to play.

Trains win 4 - 0, 9 league wins in a row, 5 points clear with 6 to play.

Interesting fact at the top end of our division table.

Waihi Beach (3rd place)  have been "inactive" (see the blue square to the left of their name) since after the first game of the season.

Depite this they are the only unbeaten side in the competition. Odd.

Trains win 3 - 4 away, and Kura Hard Gs give up a 2 - 1 lead to lose 2 - 3 to Waihi Beach, so we are 8 points clear with 5 to play. BOOM!

Dropped another 5 goals on a top 6 team, on fire.

lost 10-0 to 11 shots... my keeper was shit to say the least. meanwhile i had 7 shots 6 on target and end up with 0... a red card and yellow meaning i have more suspensions for next game which was a must win...

There was snow at Homebush Road for tonight's big game against second place Kura Hard Gs, which was a big disappointment as I was hoping it would be a capacity 40,000 crowd... alas it was just 26k.

The Trains trailed 0 - 1 and later 1 - 2 but came back to equalise a second time and then win it 3 - 2. Get in! Big RESULT!

11 points clear with 4 to play.

And crucially Pat Lewis had 2 goal, man of the macth 9.5 rating, while Kura's Samuel Krajnik was held goaless. His 4.4 rating performance saw him give up a 0.20 lead in the highest rating race to be over taken for the first time this season by Lewis.

Chew, chew! Morale is high!

3 losses for my sides tonight!

Had the better of each game too, so quite rough to lose them all.

On the plus side, my NZ side welcomes a $100m 4.5 star striker who is 29 years old. 

Won a must win game tonight 3-0 away from ho,e with half ,y team out or suspended. Pretty happy I am

solids wins for my 1st and 'b' teams. 1sts sitting in 5th for the first time in ages, but the juniors are staring at relegation.

dominating a game. they get first shot at 29 minutes now i am losing 1-0....  this game can get sooo annoying at times.. realistic but still...

which is now ofcoarse 2 goals down from 2 shots to a shit striker i might add

wow, firey game for me against Hamilton KV. currently a 2-2 draw at 79mins, they've picked up 2 yellow cards, I've picked up 5!

Get into 'em, chop 'em up!

Trains win 0 - 3 away and in so doing wrap up the league title with 3 games to play. BOOM!

Steam engines won too. Morale is high at Homebush Road tonight.

reserves went down 0-5 this evening, 1sts won 4-0. We remain 5th on GD alone, equal points with 4th. We play the 3rd placed team next, have played them 9 times, winning 3, losing 4 and drawing twice - last game was a 1-0 victory.

one of best players gets njured and then lose 4-0.... 

meh better luck next game i hope

Congratulations, this is the 1 millionth post on the forums. 

Promotion confirmed. Chew chew!!!

I rate that it was a TM post, after smithy and feverish's hate of us and wanting to remove us from the active topics :p

So relegation is all but confirmed unless some teams get banned or inactive. Even then winning a playoff maybe hard. On the plus side my b team won there first ever game even though they were dominated

4-0 win, but a team in front of me snuck a win too. Two points away from not having to play a playoff, facing two winnable games from here on in, but so do all the teams around me. Will be really tough. 

Trains won 3 - 1 on the back of a Dudanec hatrick.

12 points clear at the top of the league

What a run home... 13 League wins in a row!:

2-1 win means I'm definitely staying in the Championship for next season

Big result CT! Good stuff. The Trains are coming...

Thanks man. Hopefully we end up in the same group now that Detoxin is going down :(

I'll be dropping into the championship too. Hopefully we get a few of us in the same group!

Trains win 1 - 3 away, 14 league wins on the trot!

Hat-trick for Tsang Lushan in a 3-0 win, needs me leaving to win and hope Torbay can beat New Land FC in order to avoid having to face the relegation playoffs. 

Regardless, have successfully secured my sponsor goals so a successful debut season in div 2

One game to play and it's OH SO CLOSE in the race for player of the year...

if i get a win tonight wich is a big push i can survive. i have gone all out attack

if results go my way I'll go into the play off spot (4th) to gain promotion, think I'd rather hold onto 5th and try and strengthen my squad, it's getting to the stage nmow where I need a couple of 4.5* players to help out.

Playing me, right?

???

play your bs    please

not to mention youre safe

Need to win and hope the team above me loses to stay up on the first attempt. Otherwise it's into the playoffs

good luck

Sorry man, it was just my regular lineup. Good luck though!

all good, it would be a hollow victory otherwise. last time it was only 1-0.. i have a chance... small but a chance

bastard... injuring my mc.... and just realised a guy with a card was his replacement so assistant manager decided a dc is the best bet..

interesting. Didn't know it did that. Pretty annoying.
